German term or phrase: Aktie (here)
Would equity value be correct here? Is there enough context to be sure?

Die Umorganisation und die Strukturbereinigung sind dem Unternehmen anscheinend gut bekommen. Das ist aus dem raschen Anstieg der XX Aktie zu schließen, deren Wert seit Mitte 2003 mehr als verdoppelt hat.

share (price)
Explanation:
"...as indicated by the strong increase in the XX share price, which has more than doubled since mid-2003."

The way I read it, it simply refers to the performance of the share price.

stock/shares


Explanation:
Without further context, it's hard to say, but "equities" is much more specific. I think they're just say that the previous 2 factors helped the company so much and this is proved by the quick surge in the stock/share values.
